Have you ever consciously interacted with your bliss molecules? Well, you wouldn't know if you didn't know what they were. So let's go over that first.
What are 'bliss molecules'?
Bliss molecules are also known as endocannabinoids, a group of naturally occurring compounds within the human body produced by your endocannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS is a complex system found in all mammals that carries signals between cells in your brain and body to regulate various physiological functions such as mood, anxiety, immunity, appetite, and pain sensation.
Want to know what makes your bliss molecules happy? Here are five of Ladykind's suggestions on how to work wonders on your ECS.
How to take full advantage of your bliss molecules
-
Practice self-care. Any activity that brings you joy or fulfillment can stimulate a release of your bliss molecules. Check out our how-to guide on curating a home for your self-care practice to ensure you are working this into your daily routine and staying on top of your managing your mood.
-
Lean on your community. Healing happens in community with others. As much work as you might do on yourself in isolation, transforming our limiting beliefs happens only when we can master the art of putting it into practice, which requires interactions with others. Engaging in healthy relationships and meaningful conversations fosters connection and therefore a sense of belonging in the world; all of which do numbers for your bliss molecules.
-
Use Ladykind's CBD sublingual tinctures. Plant-based health aids and supplements, such as CBD, have an immense potential to positively impact your endocannabinoid system. By adding 1/4 of a dropper of Ladykind's sublingual tinctures (one for energizing and one for relaxing) to your morning routine, you can easily set your ECS up for success before the day even has a chance to throw you a curveball.
-
Balance your physical health. Doing this basically consists of two things we typically take for granted; diet and exercise. In today's world, this topic has been explored so much that it's not even debated anymore. The takeaways? Nourish your body with food and movement that is healthy for it.
-
Use mindfulness to reduce stress. Mitigating stress successfully is probably one of the greatest favors you can do for your bliss molecules. Practicing healthy coping mechanisms proactively can help you manage the parts of your day or life you dread but simply can't avoid. Managing the risk of stress requires mindfulness and intention in every move you make.
Your body possesses an incredible ability to create bliss molecules, if you can develop a healthy relationship with your endocannabinoid system. Doing so can significantly impact your mood, stress levels, and overall well-being. By prioritizing stress reduction, engaging in regular exercise, nourishing your body with a balanced diet, fostering meaningful connections in your community, practicing mindfulness, and pursuing activities that bring you joy, you can take full advantage of these natural wonders within you.
